Everybody Sees the Ants by A.S. King
5.0
A.S. King is quickly becoming one of my favorite voices in YA right now and I love each of her main characters with a ferocity that is hard to put into words. Lucky was hard to warm to at first, but once you do (and you will), your heart just explodes for him on ever page.
(Particularly page 205, which are so well done I wanted to throw the book on the ground, stand up and applaud.)
If you work with teens, know a teen, see a teen on the street, please direct them to this immediately. Move it to the front of all the YA sections you pass, in bookstores or train stations or libraries. Maybe take it home and read it first, but definitely make sure that it finds the hands of someone who sees the ants.
